@rc2014 the shipping invoice is not an invoice for JLC to pay, its just a piece of paper that reflects the value of goods and the quantity. You address the invoice to the address used for shipping unless JLC specifies something else.

@rc2014 it should be declared as 0 for your order but I never checked that in detail, could very well be that they declare your imported value again. Doing customs for transit parts (e.g. meant for not staying in the country for general use), is complex and not worth it for small qty.

Generally I would avoid shipping parts manually like that unless you have a giant reel of very high value parts.

@rc2014 it works like any other regular import, you need to declare goods at their commercial value, what that value is is up to you but should reflect a reality if you don't want customs to dispute your declaration.
You want to use a logistics company that does import brokerage. E.g. DHL, FedEx, UPS. Otherwise you need another company in China to handle import for you.

@leo oh its generally trash, its so trash that the in-train portal has a page that tells you when Internet is gonna be shit and for how long because the tracks just don't have consistent coverage. I heard they are working on getting 5G going, the current receivers ususally can't meet demand of a full train even when they don't have a blackout area, which is why your phone can sometimes operate better in good reception areas
Hello #gpn24
I love the Bosch 12V system so much. Look at this tiny circular saw, its perfect for most stuff in a home shop situation.
The brushless 12V tools esp. pack a huge punch and are at times stronger than older 18V brushed tools.
